Project Specification Form

How much will a ten minute film cost? How long will it take to make? Can you put it on our website?

Video production can be a complex business, and as much as we would like to tell you how long a project will take or how much it will cost, it's not possible to do so if we don't have the necessary information. We like to be able to give you a measured and informed response based on facts as each project is unique with a unique set of challenges.

In order for us to help you get the answers you are looking for, we have designed a PROJECT SPECIFICATION FORM (see below). This will help you to supply the key information to us, helping you to clarify what you are hoping to achieve. We can discuss your project with you at any time, but often those contemplating or planning a project find it helpful to have thought about these questions in advance. Either way, we look forward to hearing from you.
